You know what, I just can't stop loving ASTRO since its arrival on December last year.

In fact, MY WHOLE FAMILY LOVES IT.

Love them so much until we're all fighting teeth and toe for the remote control. To say the truth, I am also fighting for that REMOTE CONTROL.

It's really satisfying to get it in control, isn't it? And to watch others on their gloomy faces is also feeling great too! *evil laughs

OK, enough of craps. As the title says, let me bring to you my favourite TV shows, where I just addicted on them so much, on ASTRO so far. Only the shows in the channels that I subscribed count.

So let's count them down, shall we?

At number 5...

It's the Deadliest Catch, aired on Discovery Channel.

It shows the life a many brave crabbers (people who catch crabs) who fought the rogue waves and rough weathers at Bering Sea, for the stake of a million dollars.

No joke, this series even claimed several casualties, and even fatalities. But throughout the shows, I am really fascinated for their never-give-up spirit even in their most terrible conditions. Many jokes and foul words are exchanged to make this reality show interesting. Definitely worth a watch.

At number 4...

NEWS? AM I JOKING?

NO NO NO. I am serious. I do watch BBC News almost once everyday. They have News around the globe at every hour. Their documentary is also very good too.

And what's more, local news here, just cannot compete with this supreme BBC World. Simply cannot. I have getting sick with the pathetic, government-controlled local news media.

At number 3...

It's The F Word, from Asian Food Channel.

I am very certain that you think the F is the foul word, right? Well, maybe yes, maybe no?

Whatever it is, this show features my favourite celebrity chef, Gordon Ramsay, about his cooking, life, insights of food in UK and around the world, competitions, and of course, his frequent use of foul words. Haha....

It even inspires me to be a CHEF in the future. Or at least, cook better.

At number 2...

It's all about CSI! Forensic. Eerie corpses and crimes. Oh I just love the whole investigating and fighting process. It's really damn exciting as I watch. They look so professional and charming. Wakaka....

And finally, at number 1, my most favourite show on TV so far is....

Yeah, it's the mighty Amazing Race Asia!!

Though I didn't really start watching from beginning, but it's enough to get me drooled about the teams and the race covered!

Not forgetting also, these all whacky teams!

Look! They look so cute to fight like cats and dogs to reach the finish line, aren't they? Lot's of cool stuffs inside, with adrenaline pumping, I can't really explain why I like this show, but to see the show yourself!

I saw this advertisement from the kind Yellow Digi, and I am really moved by it.

Here's the ad.... in case you never see it before... hehe...

See there? Though I am NOT in the video, I am thinking that I am very alike to the guy, who just stutters found himself getting so nervous even to mention her name.

I am also like that, don't I?

Maybe not that serious as to never dare to even call her name. Haha! But the tingling, yet exciting, mind blurring and blowing feeling when I know that she's around or saw her somewhere, are just turning me away. It makes me wanna run away like a gutless kid.

I don't even dare to imagine myself to be like the ending of the ad. However on second thought, won't I want to be like that too? Herm??

Last Sunday my family and I went for the priestly ordination at a longhouse at Suai, which is located somehow 100 kilometers away from downtown Miri.

Very far, and the journey is never easy as well.

Some part of the road in unpaved, and rain caused chaos along the roads. At times we didn't really know where were we going.

Even Dad has to help to pull up 2 cars from the pits, which he described as "as easy as ABC." He's really a pro in off-road driving.

After lot's of chaotic travels, it's really relieving that we are finally there.

That BIG banner shows how important is this to the people here.

That's the longhouse, a tradition to the rural Sarawakians. Maybe not that rural because there's paved car parks around here. Bearing in mind, it's Government's political stronghold. Haha....

Putting aside the political stuffs, actually I like this place and the people here. They may not be very modern, but their courtesy really left me a great impression.

Many parishioners came from all over Miri Diocese to attend this ordination, which is always held at highest esteem, moreover this is much more significant to the longhouse people. They have a "FATHER" among themselves. SO cool...

But then, having been seated from very far away from the altar. I can hardly see anything, including the ordination process itself. Even the entire ceremony is using Iban. I was so blur about everything. How disappointing.

Nevertheless, I have a great time there. It was an amazing experience to discover what's my vocation that God's has given me. I can do nothing without God's grace. It's really really true.
